Introduction:
This app provides 6 widgets:

• Full standing
• Full standing for your class (GT3, GT2, ...)
• Full standing for the same car
• Global position
• Class position (GT3, GT2, ...)
• Same car position

Standings:
The "standings" widgets display the best lap times during practice and qualification.
During races, they will display the distance (metric or imperial) or time between you and the others.
In addition, if the driver is close to you, the delta is colored as follow:

• Green: In front of you, in the same lap
• Red: Behind you, in the same lap
• Yellow: In front of you, not in the same lap
• Blue: Behind you, not in the same lap

You can highlight some drivers by editing the file SubStanding_drivers/drivers.ini and adding the names of your teammates or rivals. Your teammates and you will be displayed in cyan, and your rivals in magenta like you can see in the picture below:


SubStanding_drivers/drivers.ini content for this example:

[TEAMMATES]
driver1 = Tuomas Tahtela

[RIVALS]
driver1 = X08
driver2 = John O'Doe

The in-game configuration widget let you change a lot of settings:



Here is an example with the "Max drivers" limited to 7, 5 and 3:



And with imperial units:



Tha classes can be configured in the SubStanding_classes/classes.ini file, by following this example:

[GT2 Class]
car1 = ferrari_458_gt2
car2 = bmw_m3_gt2
car3 = p4-5_2011

[GT3 Class]
car1 = mercedes_sls_gt3
car2 = mclaren_mp412c_gt3
car3 = bmw_z4_gt3

You can add as many classes and cars as you want, as long as you respect the synthax.

Positions:
The "position" widgets are much smaller and give your position like the picture below. It can also be configured with the in-game configuration widget.
